Slain Arshad Sharif honoured with 2023 Press Freedom Award

Senior journalist and famous anchor-person Arshad Sharif was allegedly assassinated in Kenya last night. PTI leaders alleged that Arshad Sharif was martyred by a bullet on the head.

Renowned journalist Arshad Sharif, 49, belonged to a military family. His father was a commander in Pakistan Navy and brother was a Major in Pakistan Army. Brother Ashraf Sharif  lost life in an attack by terrorists.

Who was Arshad Sharif?

Born in 1973 in Karachi, Arshad Sharif started his journalism in 1993 and began journalistic duties with English newspapers and TV channels.

Arshad Sharif got the fame from a private TV program ‘Power Play’, from where his popularity skyrocketed. In 2012 Arshad Sharif was awarded the ‘Agahi’ Award and in 2019 the Presidential Medal for ‘Pride of Performance’.

Demise of father and brother

Around 11 years back in 2011, Arshad Sharif’s father Muhammad Sharif died when he was stationed in Bannu, and his brother Ashraf Sharif was targeted by terrorists while he was on his way from Bannu to Rawalpindi.

As per some media reports, the cause of Ashraf Sharif’s death was declared as car accident, and last night, the world came to know about targeted killing of Arshad Sharif.

Fearless and unbiased comments and analysis

Arshad Sharif was able to gain prominence for his free, unbiased and fearless comments and analysis on the current affairs of the country while hosting programs on private TV channels. It is said that Arshad Sharif always supported the truth without being afraid of threats.

His name will always be remembered in the history of investigative journalism. He also reported for Pakistani and international media outlets and exposed the corrupt practices of many elements.

Arshad Sharif had deep interest in military affairs and effectively brought the news of military operations against terrorists to his viewers. His program Power Play got unprecedented popularity because of his exclusive jaw-dropping content.
